 [MartinSwe](https://profiles.wordpress.org/martinswe/) 18 An Gearran 2022

Currently the world uses the phone more than a computer, if this plugin is not responsive,
why use it? it’s useless. It’s a shame because it’s excellent. I hope you can fix
it. BR

### 󠀁[Convenient but…](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/convenient-but/)󠁿

 [Duke Snoogens](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mikeloucas/) 29 An Dùbhlachd 2021

This is convenient, but you can’t scale the icon image and if you decide to change
the icon to an SVG, all text from hotspot gets erased. If you try to us an SVG as
the icon, it shows up blank with no way to replace the image after words. This tool
seems responsive (I was testing it), so that was cool. Convenient and I still think
it’s cool for free, but the SVG thing was a bummer.
